This week we are reading about the differences between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. There is growing talk in technology circles about the emergence of "Web 3.0", motivated by growing use of mobile applications. Do some independent research on Web 3.0. Then share what you found on any of the following: What is it? What does it comprise? What uses will it hold? What relevance might it have for education or learning?
Web 3.0 will be essentially your personal assistant. On the website http://computer.howstuffworks.com/web-30.htm, it describes Web 3.0 as a learning browser, where the more you use it, the smarter the browser gets based on previous searches and preferences. “Web 2.0 uses the Internet to make connections between people. Web 3.0 uses the Internet to make connections with information.” I have some brief early experience with Web 3.0 on my iPhone applications such as Ness, which is an application that tells you where to eat based on previous rated experiences on types of food. Web 3.0 would definitely enhance learning. I find myself wasting countless hours researching for a specific thing. With Web 3.0, I would be able to spend more time learning instead of surfing the Internet because my browser would have learned my preferences and be able to analyze my search much more detailed and smarter. --Nik
Web 3.0 is a internet learning browser that allows you search content and based on your searches it provides you with information that is related to content that you previously searched. Pretty much it works as an aid to you to help find information that it feels wil benefit you. Web 3.0 allows you to take the information that you have searched and connects to it to similar information to help you navigate around the web. In a way it kind of does the work for you in adavance as trys to get a sense of the information you need and provide it to you. I think that Web 3.0 would definitely provide an advancement in learning. It could work for classes if you are searching for information about a paper or project and deliver valuable information to you. Also it could be time saving for learning as you dont have to waste time specificly searching for certain type of information.-Jonathan
According to About.com, Web 3.0 is the next change where focusing on how websites are created and how people interact with them. People believe Web 3.0 is coming soon but now people are still just guessing what will Web 3.0's future be like. One interesting scenario I found about web 3.0 is the idea that the web will evolve into one signle virtual world with buildings, shops, and other areas to explore and for people to interact with each other, in the sense of online games such as World of Warcraft. I can imagine that if we open our browser, type in a website, hit enter, and then a virtual 3D game like website pop up. This will be an amazing experience for people to surf on the website because it make you feel like you are actually in the virtual world. -Yameng
In a way, many aspects of Web 3.0 are in use by Google right now. Web 3.0 uses your personal inputs to "get to know you" in a sense, so that the next time you search for something, it'll run all of the results through an algorithm, matching the new sites to previous ones you have searched for so it gives you the most relevant and interesting information possible. It also adds other dimensions to the web than just typing on a screen. Much like the new iPhone's Siri automated assistant, Web 3.0 allows you to simply speak to the internet and get results that are relevant to you, through voice recognition and studying your previous behavior. And as I mentioned before, this Web 3.0 will literally go beyond the computerized screen, making the internet into a 3-Dimensional world.
Below is a picture I found that pretty simply depicts how rapidly the internet is developing. I wonder what Web 4.0 will be like, at this rate we'll know in a few years...
According to Wikipedia, Web 3.0 is "where the computer is generating new information, rather than humans." (Wikipedia, Web 3.0) My understanding of the future Web 3.0 would be a combination between real life with the virtual world. It would involve more 3D features on a larger range of technology. Imagine an ipone with 3D features or laptops with visited sites being portrayed in 3D. Web 3.0 also can make connections with information. My friend this weekend had an Iphone which had the voice of a woman which would communicate back to her. She would ask questions or make statements and the phone would respond. It is astonishing that technology has advanced so far to the point where phones can answer questions that we ask them. --Kaitlin
There's no exact definition for the term "Web 3.0" yet, but after searching through the web, it could be defined as a newer phase of the Internet browser that integrates those separated networks and applications from Web 2.0, which allows higher processing capabilities, greater performances, and intelligent and personalized search. So instead of multiple searches, users can type specific key words in the search engine like Google, and the web will do the rest for you. For example, instead of going on multiple airline websites to compare prices, you can just type in your dates and destinations - like "MSP to LAX on March 12" - in Google's search engine, and it will automatically organize and compare the results from different airlines for you. Web 3.0 is also believed to act as a personal assistant, where the web will remember your previous searches. As Web 3.0 being available on mobile devices, people can not only update their individual activities wherever they go, but they can also be updated with what other people are doing. With the convenience of Web 3.0, it could make educational learning easier and faster with less searching time, thus more productivity.
Web 3.0 seems like a very useful new phase of the internet that I feel a lot of people will find very useful and convenient. It is crazy what I found that this browser will be able to do. It will be capable of doing Google searches better than Google does themselves. The user will be able to enter full questions and get answers from the search that will be more articulated for them than any other search engine. For instance, I could enter a question like where should I go eat dinner tonight?.. The browser will take information about me it has collected from my past searches, such as different restaurants I have looked up directions for what kind of food they serve, places I have shown interest in like cities and states and what foods they are known for. Using these clues I have left without even knowing the browser has a feel for my likes and dislikes and will give me restaurant ideas that might fit them. I think it has relevance to learning because when I search things in regards to my interests and likes, it is gaining knowledge about me. Even though that seems strange this could help with my learning about my surroundings, different cultures, history, or daily news. Just by searching different things information could pop up that grabs my attention and gets me to read different things I normally would not have.
When I googled "Web 3.0" I came across an article that describes what some Internet experts believe Web 3.0 will be like. There is no actual definition or concrete idea of Web 3.0 yet. The article states that the first thing Web 3.0 will bring to the table is that it will be easier and faster to search for things. It gives an example of what searching is like today: 1) searching for what movies are playing in theaters that night, then 2) searching for what movie theaters are near you and playing a certain movie and then, 3) searching for a mexican restaurant in that area. It then states that searching on Web 3.0 will consist of simply typing in the search engine: "I want to see a funny movie near this location and then eat at a good mexican restaurant nearby. What are my options?" This reminds me of what Siri is like on the new iPhone today. The Internet will basically be a personal assistant. It then states that the next feature of Web 3.0 is that as you use and search on the Internet, the browser will get used to you and learn what you are interested in. The more you use your browser, the less specific your searches will have to be. --Caitlin
Web 3.0 is an extension of Web 2.0. While Web 2.0 is more about the social networking and mass collaboration with it hard to determine the difference between user and content creator, Web 3.0 is focuses more on "intelligent" web applications. Some of these applications include: natural language processing, machine-based learning and reasoning, and intelligent applications. The goal of Web 3.0 is to organize a person's interests, share them with others over the web, and then use those interests to find other people with similar interests. I think that this will help with education and learning because it will help make a person's searches more focused and direct so it cuts down the time on searching for articles and speeds up productivity.
I had difficulty grasping exactly what web 3.0 is, or maybe i should say does. If web 1.0 was read-only and web 2.0 is read-write, what will we add to make web 3.0? One aspect of web 3.0 that I found interesting is something called the "semantic web". This is a movements towards an internet that, rather than being an endless collection of data on unrelated pages, is written in the same language so that pages can 'understand' each other. In contrast with HTML code that we (humans) currently use to read and write pages on the internet the semantic code would allow computers to understand content on other pages that it wasn't directly programmed to read. This is how we would get from having to search for theaters, show times, and restaurants separately, to a search engine that could 'understand' the intentions behind a search, and not just look for keywords. --Bjarni
Web 3.0 seems to mean personalised technology that through continuous interaction with the individual, such as search history or other types of advanced reasoning, improves its ability to understand the needs and preferences of the user. Through these procedures, it will understand the ways in which you think and search for information, and will attempt to assist you to better find what you need. Siri is an example of this type of "personal data assistant" software which will attempt to act as the users secretary, faster accomplishing data searches and retrieving the information the user seeks.
